Sore Throat, Chills & Headache: Causes & Remedies
Sore throat chills and headache 16 year old boy
General Physician
Answered on 14th Aug '24
A 16-year-old experiencing sore throat, chills, and headache likely has an infection. His body battles the illness, causing these symptoms. Resting, hydrating, and taking pain medication if needed, helps. Gargling warm salt water can soothe throat pain. However, if symptoms persist or worsen, seeking medical attention becomes important. The body's defenses fight infections, leading to unpleasant effects. Rest, fluids, and medication alleviate discomfort while the immune system overcomes the infection. But if improvement lacks, consulting a doctor ensures proper treatment.

I have been packing my sons pilonidal cyst wound for 11 days, twice a day. We have gotten to the point where the cyst opening is so small I can barely put gauze in there. Currently there is no drainage, redness, or smell is this normal? I understand that it needs to heal from the inside out, but is it normal to have it so difficult to pack?
Male | 23
Consult your doctor for specific advice on your son's pilonidal cyst wound. Reduced drainage, redness, and smell may indicate healing, still monitoring is required. Difficulty in packing as the wound shrinks is normal. If you have any concerns or or see signs of infection consult your doctor quickly. Follow their instructions for proper care.

I just got out of the hospital and need some advice. My bladder got emptied with a catheter. Can I have a glass of wine with dinner?
Male | 76
With a catheter, your body is more vulnerable, so drinking alcohol isn't wise. Booze irritates the bladder, causing extra discomfort. Drink water or juice instead, for now. Allow your system to rest and recovery time.

Bukhar napte hai to nai rahta hai par dinbhar bukhar jaisa hi lagta hai
Male | 22
A low-grade fever involves feeling feverish without significantly elevated body temperature. Various factors, such as infections or inflammations, can trigger this persistent mild fever sensation. Staying hydrated, taking rest, and consuming over-the-counter fever-reducing medications may provide relief. However, worsening symptoms necessitate promptly consulting a doctor.

You should avoid the second dose of the Covishield vaccine as probably you are allergic to one of its constituents. You can also visit a General Physician for further investigation of your allergy.

I was bit by 2 month old puppy should I worry about rabbies
Male | 25
Puppies under two months rarely carry the rabies virus. Don't worry if one nipped you. Watch the bite area for infection signs, redness, or swelling. Clean the wound thoroughly with soap, and water; put antiseptic too. Keep it clean always. If fever, headaches, fatigue occurs - consult a doctor promptly.

Hello, I had a cut on my hand and another person's hand touched my wound. I saw the cut on his hand too, but I didn't feel any moisture after touch. Is it possible for HIV to be transmitted in this way?
Female | 34
HIV spreads mainly from unprotected sex, needles, or transfusions. Getting it through touching is very rare. If there was no blood or fluid, the chances are tiny. Symptoms like fever, tiredness, swollen glands may occur. But talk to a doctor if you're concerned. They can ease your worries and maybe test you.

What to do after injection of ceftriaxone wrongly and the part injected is increasing in size
Female | 22
This issue can arise when the medicine unintentionally enters surrounding tissues instead of muscle. Apply a warm, damp cloth to the affected region - this should help ease discomfort and reduce swelling somewhat. Keep the area clean, and watch closely for potential signs of infection like redness, excessive warmth, or pus formation. However, if symptoms intensify or you start feeling ill overall, it's crucial to promptly seek professional medical evaluation.
